Elton John - Big Dipper Lyrics

Now I saw you talkin' to a cute little slip of a sailor
And it looked at first like the whole thing would end as a failure
He had a thing about a quarter to four
And he just couldn't handle any more

He's got his own big dipper
So he won't be needin' your big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
And he won't be needin' yours

So you filled him up with all kinds of stuff to relax him
And you took him down to the fairground after some action
And by around about a quarter to six
You found a different way to get your kicks

Up on the real big dipper
Where you tried a few new tricks, big dipper
Up on a great big dipper
Did you learn a few new licks?

He hadn't been too keen at the start
And now he seems to have a change of heart
He's got his own big dipper, only now, he's not so sure, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper but there's always room for more

Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
Oh, everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper

And at around about a quarter to ten
You got up and did it all again
He's got his own big dipper and he knows just what it's for, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper but he's got his eye on yours

Everybody's got a song to sing
Oh, everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
Everybody's got a song to sing
Oh, everybody got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
Oh, everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper

Another ride, another tune
Another crazy afternoon
Another reason for squeezing your big dipper
